ABSTRACT:
In a system for detecting a degree of unevenness of a surface of a semiconductor device, the surface is irradiated with light having a wavelength of approximately 240 nm to 500 nm. The degree of unevenness of the surface is determined in accordance with an intensity of reflected light from the surface.
